iChurch

iChurch is the cover story of the latest issue of Leadership. It discusses the church shopping and argues against a consumerist approach to Christianity. I'm surprised -- but heartened that a pastor would pen this article. Though my guess is that as dissappointed as they are with members shopping for churches, as long as pastors market their churches (especially in an environment of competition rather than competition) they'll continue to produce consumers rather than make disciples.

Cameron, commercialism does affect Christianity I believe in that people try to find happiness from material possessions etc. I think sadly in the world that community is breaking down and values diminishing.
